Certificate Program: Environmental Science Degree and Programs

Do you feel passionate about protecting the planet for future generations? Have an aptitude for science and research? If so, you might want to pursue a career in environmental science.

Environmental Science Education and Career Opportunities

You can begin your education online through a certificate program. Online environmental certificate programs are flexible so you can work the course load into your current unique schedule. It is important, however, to understand that an online program should serve as a springboard toward a more advanced degree. A certificate may qualify you to work as an environmental science technician, but to become an environmental scientist, you typically need a bachelor's or master's degree.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment in the environmental science industry is expected to continue to grow over the next decade. Armed with your certificate in environmental science, you should be prepared to join this expanding industry.
